In the Christian Science Bible Lesson

Christian Science is not a "fad," but a practical and demonstrable system of religion and healing, which for the past forty years, in the face of the bitterest opposition and ridicule, and oftentimes persecution, has proved beyond the shadow of a doubt its right to be recognized as the greatest blessing that has come to mankind since the day of our great Master, whose teachings and practice it logically explains and interprets, in the way he commanded; namely, by the healing of sickness and the overcoming of sin.
Christian Science denies the reality of sin, sickness, and death in the sense that they are not God-made entities and consequently are not indestructible, for "whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever;" but it does not deny that these things have become a part of mortal experience, though it is constantly proving their nothingness by overcoming their asserted claims through the power of the simple gospel of Jesus.
Christian Science does by no means "stifle inquiry;" it is not so foolish as to attempt to do so, since the honest enquirer approaching the subject without bias is invariably convinced of the truth.
What then did Jesus teach?
Christian Science is nothing more nor less than scientific Christianity.
To say that Christian Scientists do not believe in baptism is simply juggling with phrases and evasion of facts.
The gentleman quotes at length from various distinguished men and authors who refer to death as inevitable.
The critics of Christian Science have seldom taken the trouble to study it at first hand; most of them are content to take the opinion of others who are frank enough to admit that they do not understand the text-book, and ignorant enough to pronounce judgment on what they do not understand.
